KADKE KAMAAL KE | 25 May, 2019

Ketan Films International’s Kadke Kamaal Ke (UA) is the story of two people.

Sunny (Aryan Adhikari) lives with his maternal uncle (Rajpal Yadav) in Panauti village in Nepal. Both are lazy but want to become millionaires. The villagers want to have nothing to do with the duo as they trouble them in a bid to make quick money.

A fake sadhu tells them that they would make money in Bombay and so the nephew-uncle duo comes to Bombay. Sunny meets Priyanka (Neeta Dhungana) in Bombay. He had met her briefly when she had visited Nepal. Sparks fly between Sunny and Priyanka. Soon, Sunny comes in the good books of Priyan­ka’s builder-father and, therefore, starts working for him. Both, Sunny and his uncle now become rich.

One day, they are shattered to learn that an earthquake has devastated their Panauti village. They return to Nepal and donate all their earnings for the welfare of the villagers. Priyan­ka and her dad also come to Nepal. Priyanka’s dad not only gives financial aid to the villagers but also gets Pri­yanka married to Sunny. The uncle also gets married to a local in Panauti village.

V.K. Singh and Laxman Singh’s story is silly and does not have even a hint of novelty. Sanjeev Nigam’s screenplay is dull but the comedy of the maternal uncle is a bit entertaining. Sanjeev Nigam’s dialogues are so-so.

Rajpal Yadav, as the maternal uncle, entertains at places with his comedy. Aryan Adhikari is fair as Sunny. Neeta Dhungana is okay in the role of Priyanka. Rana Jung Bahadur does an average job as Pri­yanka’s builder-father. Daya­shan­kar Pandey is alright as Kalicharan. Vijay Patkar, Angel Shreshtha, Usha Nad­karni, Prakash Ghimire, Ram­chandra Adhikari, Aarti Solanki, Rajeev Nigam, Uday Dahiya and the others provide routine support.

Laxman Singh’s direction is ordina­ry. Music (Rajiv-Nyzel, Kamal Khatri, Vinod Solanki, Tash M-Young J) is okay. Lyrics (Laxman Singh, Kamal Khatri, Tash M-Young J, Dhruv Son­kar) are ordinary. Aron Ashok Kumar’s camerawork is commonplace. Art direction (by Anil Kukde and Dinghe Lama) is so-so. Ashish Arjun Gaikar’s editing is loose.

On the whole, Kadke Kamaal Ke has only some comedy as its plus point but otherwise, it is too ordinary to make a mark at the box-office.
